Make controlled casts with a clear path behind and beside you. Test the lure nearby before a long cast to see how it responds to different reel speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBegin with steady handle turns and enough line contact to follow the lure without pulling it through every change of direction. Try a brief pause followed by a short turn of the reel, then let the bait respond before changing cadence again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWork along cover edges with room for an unobstructed retrieve. When a fish commits and you feel its weight, reel down and make a controlled hookset. Maintain steady pressure during the fight, then inspect the knot, line, hooks, and joint before your next cast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspect the joint, hooks, and attachment hardware before fishing. After saltwater exposure, rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly before storage. Secure hooks during transport. If replacing hooks or hardware, check that the new components clear the joint and do not change the lure's movement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Throwback Baits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50956322472155,"sku":"sku-55988735115432","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/5320\/7003\/files\/BlueShad_5b610dbb-8013-4cab-b9ff-6bd2d102c9fb.png?v=1793145123","url":"https:\/\/www.reelfishcartel.com\/products\/baitfish-metro-glide-lt","provider":"ReelFishCartel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
